New FlexLink Soft Products Conveyor Provides Gentle Handling
A unique new conveyor chain recently developed and introduced by FlexLink is gentle to soft products and offers increased efficiency and service life, even in environments where dust and particulates are a problem.
Allentown, PA (PRWEB via PR Web
Direct) July 19, 2005 -- A unique new conveyor chain recently developed and
introduced by FlexLink is gentle to soft products and offers increased
efficiency and service life, even in environments where dust and particulates
are a problem. The new chain features very smooth surfaces and link interfaces
for improved gentleness and minimum dust generation in product handling.
Moreover, the link interfaces are designed to minimize dust intrusion to the
conveyors. Dust intrusion has a considerable negative effect on service life.
Significant efforts in design were made to optimize the chain and slide rail
contact to enhance service life as well as to minimize friction.
Gentle
handling of soft or fragile products is enhanced by the chain material's smooth
surfaces, tight tolerances and a different configuration of link interfaces.
These interfaces minimize the effects of dust and particle buildup, and the
chain and slide rail's construction of wear resistant, low friction materials
enhance service life.
